After nearly 15 months, my new club has finally grown up enough that I don't have to keep my eyes on it every second of the day. It has been truly similar to having a new-born baby. Now it can stand on its own two feet and eat people food. And although there are still a lot of temper-tantrums from teenagers stuck in 2009 (how can teenagers be so nostalgic and conservative already?) I'm ready to get back to writing. For a while some of it will be repeats posted on my club's blog, but I will do a better job sharing bands that come thru I think are worth sharing.

So, to start I am going to share my new favorite band, which I magically convinced to come from Brooklyn on their way to Burning Man to play tomorrow night. I found them by accident and fell instantly in love with their techno-Yeah Yeah Yeahs style. Can't wait to meet them tomorrow night.

hi, i'm *j and I will be your server today

After nearly a year of Song of the Day posts on Facebook I am starting a music blog. For those days when just a few characters isn't enough to fill my musical thoughts.This is meant as a journal for teaching my kids about the importance of music and music history. Monday through Saturday will be generally be rock related, though not always. Sundays we will go into other genres from Swing to Jazz to Musicals to Classical. Not sure if you'll read me, not sure if you'll care. But you are invited to tune in to check out new and old tunes with me in bite-sized digestible trax.*j
